TEN PEOP LE BAD LY INJURED. 
A Tremendous Eiploslou In an Under- 
ground Hallway Station In London. 

London, April 27.— A tremendous ex- 
plosion occurred on the underground 
railway at 5 :80 o'clock yesterday even- 
ing as a train filled with men from the 
city was making its usual stop at the 
Aldersgute station. The glass roof of 
the station was blown out and the plat- 
form was strewn with debris. Many of 
the gaslights in the waiting rooms and 
on the platform were extinguished, and 
the station was left in semi-darkness. A 
general panic ensued. 

When comparative quiet had been re- 
stored it was found that a first class 
coach had been completely wrecked and 
that its occupants were lying about 
maimed and bleeding. Ten of the in- 
jured wore found to be in a precarious 
condition and. were, removed tp hospi- 



tals. A number of persons who we're 
standing on the platform were also 
hurt. Much of the wreckage was hurled 
across the station. 

The cause of the explosion is not 
known, but it is believea to have been 
the result of an aocumlation of gas 
which became ignited in some way. 
Many persons, however, believe that the 
disaster was not due to accident, but 
was oanBed by the explosion of a bomb 
which had been placed in the station 
with the intention of wrecking it. 



HAV EMEYER D -AD. 

The Vloe President of the Sugar Trast 
Passes Away. 

New York, April 37.— Theodore A. 
Havemeyer, vice president of the great- 
est Bugar refining concern in the world 
— the sugar trust — died at his home, 244 
Mudisou avenue, early yesterday morn- 
ing, after an illness of two weeks. His 
wife and several children were at his 
bedside when he died, as was his brother, 
Henry O. Havemeyer. 

Mr. Havemeyer's illness was caused 
by complications arising from stomach 
troubles. He had just returned a few 
days ago from a trip to St. Augustine, 
Aiken and Old Point Comfort. 

Mr. Havemeyer was the grandson of 
the Havemeyer who founded the great 
sugar industry which he and his brother 
inherited. Although an American, 
Havemeyer was really more of a for- 
eigner t liau a Yankee. He lived most 
of his years abroad and was decorated 
by the Austrian emperor with the Order 
of Leopold. 

For 25 years he was oonsnl general of 
Vienna. The emperor tendered him 
the pkice during a visit of Havemeyer 
to the Austrian capital. At that time 
sugar affairs were pressing the Have- 
meyers, but the emperor was so im- 
portunate that Havemeyer consented 
to accept the Office, iu agreeing to 
take the title cont'errod upon him with 
Ins decoration— the title of an Anstriun 
baron — Havemeyer gave up whatever 
political ambition he may have enter- 
tained so far as this country is con- 
cerned. 

Havemeyer was born in New York 
city in 18vi9. Theodore, at an early age, 
began work in his father's refinery and 
learned all the details of the sugar re- 
fining industry. He was admitted into 
partnership in 1891, and soon afterward 
opened a refinery of his own, which 
was merged into the general company 
when the trust was formed. Mr. Have- 
meyer has added to his millions money 
made in the banking business and by 
wise dealing in real estate. In 1868 he 
murricd Miss Emilie de Loosey and has 
nine children. He lived in t. palace on 
Madison avenue. His broth Henry is 
president of the sugar trust. 

SEN A tYaND H OUSE. 

No Business Transacted In Either Branch 
of Congreea. 

Washington, April 27.— The senate 
chamber hod a deserted appearance 
when the session opened yesterday, 
many of the senators having gone to 
New York to attend the Grant cere- 
monies. Mr. Harris of Tennessee was 
at his desk for the first time in many 
weeks, and was congratulated on Ins re- 
covery from a serious illness. 

In the absence of the vice-president 
and president pro tern., Mr. Frye, Mr. 
Nelson of Minnesota occupied the chair. 

When the Indian bill was reported 
back from the house an effort was mado 
to send it to conference, but Mr. Gor- 
man objected, saying that it had been 
understood that no business whatever 
was to be transacted. Thereupon, at 
12 :05 p. m., on motion of Mr. Morrill, 
the senate adjou rned to T hursday. 

Iu the House. 

Washington, April 27. — The house 
held a purely formal session Many of 
the members had gone to New York to 
attend the Grant tomb exercises and 
under the arrangement made last Friday 
after the reading of the journal an ad- 
journment was immediately taken until 
Thursday. The president's message 
transmitting the report of the Mexican 
boundary line commission was, how- 
ever, received before adjournment. Mr. 
C. W. Stone (Rep., Pa.) presided as 
speaker pro tern. There were less than 
50 members present. 

POLICE MAN BU RGLAR. 

He Confessed to Robbing Two Residences 
of Thousands .of Dollars. 

Washinoton, April 27. — A queer 
complication in burglaries developed 
here yesterday, when Policeman James 
E. Pierce of the metropolitan force was 
arrested for robbing two houses on his 
beat. The sufferers were Mr. Paunce 
McMillan and Mr. M. Cooke. Both 
houses are in a fashionable residence 
section. The families were away at the 
time and Pierce improved the opportu- 
nity to curry away a large amount of 
glass, clothing, porcelain and other port- 
able valuables. 

Detectives searched his house and re- 
covered #l,500worthof plunder. Pierce, 
who comes from Vermont, has been on 
the force four years. He confessed his 
guilt, but refused to say where all his 
booty was secreted. 

Murder and Suicide. 

New York, April 87.— Isidore Weber 
shot his 4-year-old daughter Josie, yes- 
terday, killing her, and then killed 
himself with the same weapon, falling 
dead beside his child. Weber was a 
hard drinker. He came from Tennes- 
see, and six years ago married Lena 
Huebuer in Baltimore. He used his 
wife ill uud she was obliged to turn him 
out of doors. Yesterday he returned 
and finding Josie about to start for 
school, offered to accompany her there. 
Her grandmother consented. As they 
left the house Weber drew his p.Btol and 
committed the murder ;.ud suicide. 



MYRIADSJUST DIE. 

Weyler's Awful Plan of Crush- 
ing the Cuban Rebellion. 



A SOUL - HARROWING STORY, 



Absolute Starvation Is the Fate of More 
Than a Hundred Thousand Peaceful In- 
habitants-Children Dying In the Streets 
and Hablcs Found Dead In the Arms or 
Their Exhausted Mothers. 

New York, April 27.— A special to 
The World from Havana says : Private 
letters from the interior report whole- 
sale starvation. Somo of the casee are 
especially heartrending. Children are 
dying in the streets of Matanzas and 
babies have been found dead iu the 
arms of their exhausted mothers. Your 
correspondent has been through the 
province of Pinar del Rio and has sen 
whole villages of living skeletons, in 
bark huts, praying for death to release 
them from their suffering. 

General Weyler is seizing the cnttle 
of the citizens for the use of the troops 
in Santa Clara. Rufuel Rubio, an Amer- 
ican citizen, last 21 head of cattle in 
that way. When he complained to the 
Spanish authorities und demanded pay 
for them, he was told that he wus im- 
pudent to usk Spain to pay for what the 
insurgents took with impunity. 

A guerrilla squad, raised, armed and 
mounted by Spanish cattle-owners of 
Sancti Spiritus, went out and drove in 
200 head of cattle to be slaughtered for 
the benefit of the needy people of the 
city, but Weyler ordered all the meat 
sent to Manzanillo for the soldiers. 

The effect of concentrating the coun- 
tiy people in fortified towns is seen iu 
all its awf ulness in Las Villus, as Cu- 
bans call Kanta Clara province, it 
mtaiis "the towns," Santa Clara having 
ninny cities. Five of the cities are of 
large population. Santa Clara is in the 
center, Cienfuegos and Sancti Spiritus 
on the south and Sagua la Grande and 
Rcmedios on the north. There were 
850,000 people living in the five districts, 
of which these five cities are the capi- 
tals. Of this population 150,000 lived 
outside of the cities and villages. All 
these have been compelled to leave their 
farms and move into the cities and fort- 
ified townB. In some of the latter the 
concentrados outnumber the original 
population. They have no money and 
if they had there is not food enough to 
supply all who need it. 

Bark huts have been built in low lying 
places, and they are crowded with pov- 
erty-stricken refugees. They are half 
naked, sick from exposure and dying of 
hunger. They are peaceful, hard-work- 
ing people. On their farms they would 
be not only self-supporting, but able to 
supply plenty of vegetables, eggs, meat 
and fruit to the starving people of the 
cities. Under Weyler's policy of con- 
centration the whole 850,000 persons are 
suffering and 150,000 are doomed to die 
for lack of food, which they could easily 
obtain if allowed to work. This policy, 
as a war measure, is worse tlian useless 
from the Spanish standpoint, for it haB 
forced hundreds of men who would have 
remained at work on their farms to join 
the rebels rather than be forced to see 
their families starve in the cities and 
towns. 

In some of the smaller places in Las 
Villas the overcrowding is terrible. 
Sitiaolto, before the order was given, 
had 100 people. It now contains 1,000, 
including soldiers. The farmers or- 
dered in have built 250 huts and are 
slowly dying off. There are a dozen 
places like this in the province. 

Wevler hus had all the cattle killed in 
the fields by the guerrillas and left to 
rot. No meat can be brought in except 
for the troops. 

Almost all of the sugar centrals are 
points for concentration. The owners 
are not allowed to grind, but they must 
protect their property. They build forrs 
and the soldiers are put iu them. This 
makes a fortified point, and the formers 
round about move in. They stand a 
chance of getting food now and then, 
for the planter pities them, but they are 
worse off than those in regular towns, 
for not a drop of medicine cau be car- 
ried to them. Not a druggist dare sell 
any drugs or fill a prescription to be 
taken outside the regular fortified 
towns. If a grain of quinine for a suf- 
fering soul 8 given it means death to 
the sender if caught. 

The insurgents in arms are much bet- 
ter off than the concentrated pacifiers. 
They kill a beef in the fields when they 
choose, but when they have taken whut 
they need, thev generally send word to 
the owner and they come and get the 
rest of it, or they try to get it to the 
starving people around the centrals. 
The wanton destruction of cattle by the 
Spaniards has exasperated the ranch- 
men, many of whom are Spanish and 
were hitherto loyal. 

TO INVESTIGATE THE RUlS CASE. 

tivorge I'.. Huld w In Will «... to Havana as 
Legal Alvlscr. 

Washinoton, April 27. — The an- 
nouncement is made at the White 
House that lieorge E. Baldwin of Can- 
ton, O., will go to Havana as legal ad- 
viser of Consul Lee, to take churgo of 
the investigation into the alleged butch- 
ery of Dr. Ruiz. His selection was 
warmly recommended by Judge Day, 
heretofore chosen for the duty, but com- 
pelled to remain here as assistant secre- 
tary of state. Mr. Baldwin's long inti- 
macy with tho president is expected to 
make his observations while in Cuba as 
valuable to the administration as those 
of Judge Day could have been. 

It will be necessary for Mr. Baldwin 
to leave for Havuna as soon as possible, 
for it is already two months since Ruiz 
died, and further jielay might- destroy 



the usefulness of the investigation. 

Mr. F'aldwin's arrival here is looked 
for on Thursday. When he shall return 
from Cuba it is the general impression 
that Lee will accompany him and not 
return to Havana again. Lee's resigna- 
tion has been in the hands of Secretary 
Sherman mace March ft. Judge Day's 
predecessor in the state department, As- 
sistant Secretary Rockhill, has ten 
ottered the Havana post, but hesitates 
to accept it, preferring a position in 
China or Egypt. 

CROPS IN IN DIANA. 

Reports on the Ontlook for Scott, Wayne 
and Knox Countries. 

Scottsblru, Ind., April 27. — Owing 
to th>j late spring and extreme wet 
weather, all farm produce is nearly 
three weeks behind in southern Indiana. 
Fruit Is especially slow in developing, 
being in all stages of bloom. Last year 
at this time cherries were the size of 
peas, and other fruit trees were also 
laden with green frait. Trees were a 
mass r f green foliuge, while now the 
leaves are just beginning to come out. 

Fruit growers on the Knobs say that 
the tries were not injured by last Mon- 
day night's freeze nearly so much as 
was supposed. Peach trees seem to 
have withstood the cold with little, if 
any, damage, and an average crop is ex- 
pected. 

Scarcely any gardening has been done 
and no ground has been broken for corn 
by fanners. 

What little wheat that will be left for 
harvest is doing well. The acreage is 
small and hundreds of acres all over the 
county will be plowed up and planted 
in corn. There will be an exceptionally 
tog* amount of the latter raised this 
year. Much of the ground otherwise 
given to wheat is planted in clover, of 
which the farmers are raising more 
tach year. Much grass is also being 

Elantcd, and the hay crop will be 
> avy. 

Generally speaking, this has been a 
bad spring for all cereal produce, and 
bejnjf so Lite, the usual summer drouth 
will be like.y to do considerable dam- 
age. 

Average Prospeets. 

Richmond, Ind., April 27.— Prospects 
nre for average crops of all kinds in this 
county, according to reports of the farm- 
ers. Corn planting has been delayed by 
the weather during the early part of 
this month, but much ground has been 
broken during the past week. Wheat 
fields in most localities look fuirly well. 
There will be manv acres of outs grown 
this season also. Other crops, including 
fruits, will give an average yield. 

A New Wheat Pest. 

Vincennrs, Ind., April 27.— A new 
wheat pest has been discovered that bids 
fair to do great damage to the crop of 
1897. It is a very small worm, which 
does its deadly work by boring holes in 
the roots of the plant. It is doing con- 
siderable damage to the wheat in many 
localities in southern Indiana and Illi- 
nois. Its appearance is earlier than the 
chinch bug or Hessian fly. and it does 
its destructive work more thoroughly 
than either. 

STATESMAN, REST. 

Tho Hurlnl of Congressman William «. 
Holman at His Old Home. 

Lawrpnc-ebtru, Ind., April 27.— .Wil- 
liam S. Holman, congressman from this 
district, was buried at Aurora Sunday 
from the historic Holman homestead on 
the river, six miles below here. Many 
of the congressman's old friends from 
this city attended the funeral and paid 
a last tribute to the dead statesman. 

The funeral train was met at Aurora 
by a delegation of citizens, whonceived 
the congressional committee in charge 
of the remains. The funeral service 
was simple. The Rev. S. E. Davies, 
pastor of the First Baptist church of 
Aurora, conducted the short scuvices. 

Telephone Kschauge Domed Out. 

Wabash, Ind., April 27. — Fire of un- 
known origin broke out in the Home 
Telephone Exchange of this city yester- 
day. The switchboard was destroyed 
and the connections were all burned off. 
It will be several days before the 200 
subscribers on the hues are again sup- 
plied with service. 

Falls From a Load of Hay. 

Valparaiso, Ind., April 27.— John 
Brongh, a prominent farmer of Hebron, 
while unloading a load of hay yesterday 
fell backward, breaking two ribs and 
receiving other internal injuries. He is 
75 years old, and will probab ly die. 

Justin McCarthy 111. 

London, April 27.— Right Hon. Justin 
McCarthy, member of parliament for 
the north division of Longford, and for- 
merly the leader of the Irish nationalist 
party, has been suffering for a week 
past, his sickness being supposed to be 
dysentery, but ho had so recovered yes- 
terday as to be able to take a drive. His 
family is not at all alarmed at the con- 
dition of his health. 

Went for His Health Hut Died. 

Colorado Springs, Col., April 27. — 
Mr. Augustus M. Priedlander, the por- 
trait painter of New York, died sud- 
denly in this city of consumption. He 
came to Colorado about two mouths ago 
on the advice of his physician in New 
York, and has engaged in painting por- 
traits of prominent Colorado Springs 
and Denver residents.

MARCHING ON TO YOLO 

The Turks Are Within One 
Hour of the City. 



GREEK TROOPS ALL WITHDRAWN 



At the Same Time the C.rc. k Troops Have 
Occupied All the Positions Around Pen- 
tepliradla - Colonel Manns Asks For Re- 
inforcements and Two Thousand Men 
Have Heen Sent -Latest War News. 

Athens, April 27.— A telegram re- 
ceived here states that the Turks are 
within an hour's march of Volo. The 
Greek troops have been withdrawn 
from the town and are taking the 
wounded from the hospitals. 

The latest dispatches here show that 
the Greeks have occupied all the posi- 
tions around Pentepigadia. Colonel 
Manos has asked for reinforcements in 
order to insure his advance to Janina. 
Colonel JJairaktaris has therefore start- 
ed with 2,000 men to assist him. The 
report that Colonel Manos has been or- 
dered to retire is unfounded. 

The Proia. in a special edition, an- 
nounces that General Smolenski has 
been appointed chief of staff of the army 
in Thessaly, with power to choose the 
members of his staff. General Smolen- 
ski is 4. r ) years of age and very popular 
with the troops. 

It "is retorted here that Trikknla has 
been evacuated and that the Tnrks are 
constructing temporary forts at Larissa. 

The disposition of Greek soldiers of 
the defense of Pharsalas has been care- 
fully studied by the general staff and 
the minister for wur, and orders have 
been given for the occupation of the 
heights at Velegetino and Pilasletepi by 
independent brigades. 

It is stated that Admiral Stammatel- 
los will be appointed to the chief com- 
mand of the eastern squadron. 



TURKISH ADVICES. 

The Turkish Troops Well Received by 
the Inhabitants of Larissa. 

Constantinople, April 27.— It is offi- 
cially declared here that the Greeks, be- 
fore evacuating Larissa, released all per- 
sons confined in the local jails and that 
it was the latter who destroyed and pil- 
laged the houses. According to the 
same statement the Turkish troops were 
received with enthusiasm by such in- 
habitants as remained in the town. 

Mustapha Natik Bey has been consti- 
tuted commandant of the town. He 
has tak. n possession of the bank with 
the money it contains. The town will 
be held by a small garrison. Military 
operations in this quarter are for the 
time concluded. The cautious policy of 
Kd hem Pasha is fully justified, and he 
deserves every congratulation as a skill- 
ful and humane general. 

The porte has announced that Greeks 
In the service of the consulates, hospi- 
tals, foreign missions and postoffices 
may remain in Turkey, but that all 
others must leave tho country.

has left for Hlassona to take command 
of the Turkish urmy. 

ANOTHER FREAK. 

More Land Being Inundated Along, the 
Lower MlMlaalppI River. 
Memphis. April 27.— Last night a sec- 
ond break occurred iu the levee at 
Promised Land at a point about 500 feet 
above the reuent break there. The strip 
of levee between tho two breaks gave 
way and there exists a monster cre- 
vasse a thousand feet in width, through 
which the water is rushing to the low- 
lands iu great volume. Many of the 
levees in the Louisiana district are yet 
iu a critical condition, and the work of 
strengthening and watching the weak 
places is being carried on both day and 
night. 

The Tensas river is rising rapidly as a 
result of the breaks at Bigg's and Reed's 
levees, and a general overflow from this 
stream is looked for. The Black river 
is rising, and the backwaters from the 
Bigg's crevasse is spreading over a large 
area. 

Throughout the Mississippi delta the 
backwater is stationary, but a speedy 
decline is predicted. 

The river at Memphis and Cairo is 
falling. 

Playing a Waiting Ciame. 

FitANKr"ORT, ivy., April 27.— Only a 
formal ballot, with ouo vote for each 
candidate, was taken in the senatorial

Steve O'Donnell, by practically knock- 
ing him out in the sixth round of their 
bout at the arena of the (Quaker City

The Public Ledger had six items yester- 
day that appeared "exclusively" in Sat-

Cosore'sman Prow's ldau of selecting

George Gould's Easter Offering. 

All Saints' Episcopal Church at Lake- 
wood, of which Rev. D. L. Schwartz is 
rector, received a gift of a check for 
$1,000 from George Gould this morning. 
It was found in one of the small envel- 
opes supplied by the church when the 
morning collection wa9 counted at the 
close of the service. For some time there 
has been a heavv mortgage on the rec- 
tory, and during Lent earnest appeals for 
financial aid have been made. The col- 
lection at this morning's service was de- 
voted to that end, and in addition to Mr. 
Gould's liberal contribution over $500 
was raised. 

Mr. Gould and his family have always 
attended the church and have been 
prominently identified with the enter- 
tainments in connection therewith.—

brated the L O. O. F., auniversary in an 
appropriate manner. 

The Vanceburg band furnished music; 
there was a parade at 2 p. m., and public 
speaking in the M. E. Church. 

Rev. Mr. Ramey presided over the ex- 
ercises in the church. The addresses 
were delivered by Messrs. Thomas A. 
Davis, C. L. Sallee and H. C. Curran of 
this city. 

An interesting program had been ar- 
ranged, and a most enjoyable feature of 
it was a vocal solo by Mr. II. C. Curran, 
which charmed all who heard it. 

A banquet was served in the L O. O. F. 
hall. It was a big day at Tollesboro, and 
there was a big crowd on hand to enjoy 
it. 

Tollesboro Lodge was organized in 
1882. Six candidates were initiated last 
night, giving it a membership of about 
sixty. 

Mr. John Mubray, late of the Gilmore

dence on Second street in the First ward.

beauty. Mr. Jacob Wormald is doing 
the work. 

Mb. Ciiari.es F. Petry has returned

regret to leorn his health has not

ORANGEBURG. 
The usual services of the C. E. Society ol the 
Christian Church here were varied on the eve of 
Easter Sunday by a song service which was pro- 
nounced both pleasing and appropriate by all 
present. The thanks of the society are due Mrs, 
A. C. Coryell, Mrs. W. H. Hord, Miss Georgia Roe. 
Rev. Walking and Richard Roe for efficient aid 
rendered on the occasion. As In abe past year 
several prominent members of the church have 
been called home, a part of the service was dedi- 
cated to their memory In an " Easter Tribute," 
prepared by Miss Maybugh. The same was not 
written for publication, but at the request of 
friends of the departed, we give it below : 

Again, we have welcomed the spring time. 

its promise of bud and of bloom. 
With echo of bird song through woodlands 

And the voices of waters lu tune ; 
All nature resounds to the music 

That floats through the shimmering air, 
And the earth is alf golden with sunshine, 

And gay with a blossoming rare ; 
But for us, who have gathered 

To welcome this bright Easter day. 
The suullght has paled lu Its beauty - 

A shadow has darkened our way ; 

For since we last gathered here singing 

The praises of earth's risen Lord 
So many have passed through the portals 

To dwell In the garden of God ; 
Have slipped down the valley of silence 

Where mortal feet never may tread, 
Have waked to the glory of heaven, 

Which mortal eyes never have read. 

When lilies of Easter were blooming in beauty. 

One short year ago ; 
Our pa«tor belovtuf among us 

Was called from his labor below. 
So earnest, God fearing and helpful 

He lived in bis work tor the Lord, 
But the Master has said "Come up higher, 

Where awalteth my servant's reward." 

When the suns of the summer 

Glowed ou the fields of July, 
And the golden grains fell, 

As the reapers passed by : 
Another, a frleud we have known, 

From our earliest day* : 
Beloved In Christ's kingdom, 

Who walked In his ways, 
Pawed upward from earth 

To the land of the blest, 
A mother in Israel 

I. called to her rest. 

When the silverysword of the Frost 

Smote the earth as with merciless hand, 
And the haze of au Indian summer, 

Lay soft o'er the beautiful land ; 
Again, to our midst, came the reaper, 

Who garners the harve«t of God, 
And one growing old in bis service, 

Who long In bis vineyard has trod, 
Crossed over the dark rolling river. 

To laud on eternity's shore: 
Thv steward naseuded bis labor. 

For blu>, earth's tolls are all o'er. 

Amid wild, wailing winds. 

And the sobbing of rain : 
When the element* e'en 

Seemed aklu to our pain 
Th« messenger railed her, 

And "Maldee" went home ; 
A white-souled evangel 

In fairer fields to roam, 
And while we. In our blindness, 

Were crying "Sbe'sgone," 
The angels were singing in chorus, 

"She has come, she has come!" 

And then, in the prime of hit manhood, 

When life full of promise seemed bright, 
Once more has the death angel beckoned. 

Another soul passed Into light ; 
Swept out through the chill and the darkness, 

'Mid the wild winters pitiless reign, 
Another home lonely and broken, 

Another heart sobbing lu pain. 

Again, when the birds of thespriug time, 

Were bursting to beautiful life. 
Our young brother "Willie" passed upward, 

In freedom from earth's weary strife; 
Ami again, far away to the southland 

Where the ranges of Texan hill rite, 
Another soul soaring In beauty. 

To a home far beyond starry skies ; 
And as be lay dying he whispered 

"Hweet Time, hurry me on." 
It may be that Jesus was calling, 

"Thou faithful one, welcome, well done." 

And we, who stand yet In tbe shadow 

Nor see bcyoud earth's yawning grave, 
Have only the promise of Jesus, 

To comfort, to heal and to save. 
We know not where lies this fair heaven, 

Which sorrows of earth never dim. 
But we pray that tbe friends who have left us, 

Are resting in glory with Him. 

And we. who are learning life's lessons. 

Know how brief Is the time of Its span, 
Should follow the footsteps of Jesus, 

In doing the good that we cau. 
Be tenderer still to the living, 

Deal gently with souls gone astray, 
And, bearing the burden of others, 

We shall lighten our own on the wav. 
And now, we would pray thee, O t Father, 

To lenu from thy mansions above : 
To perfect our works In thy greatness, 

And strengthen our faith In thy love. 

And then, when our feet touch the river. 

That borders the heavenly shore, 
Wilt thou reach down thy strong arm of mercy, 

And bear us lu peace -.if. lv o'er, 
Where blossoms of Easier blow always, 

And the bills of eternity rise 
Where no moon aud no sunlight are needed, 

To brighten the glory of skies ! 
And there, may wo know the departed— 

The friends who have gone from us here, 
May thev stand on the shore to await us. 

And Joyfully welcome us I" 




there.

GRANT'S SCHOOL DAYS 

— V 

At the Old Maysville Seminary Reralled liy 
Men Who Were His Pellow- 
Student*. 

[Enquirer.] 

The forthcoming ceremoniea attendant 
upon the dedication of the Grant maueo- 
eum at New York haa aroused untie aal 
interest in various reminiscences in this 
section, where the boyhood daya of the 
great commander were spent. Quite a 
number of the most prominent men in 
Cincinnati at one time attended the 
Maysville Seminary, from which Grant 
graduated and proceeded to West Point. 
A. B. Voorheis, of Voorhels, Miller & 
Co., wholesale clothier*, at Third and 
Walnut streets, attended the school ar.d 
graduated from it in 1858. 

"Of course, at that time," said he, 
"Grant was very little talked about, but 
as soon as he became famous as a Gen- 
eral, his old teacher, as well aa oure, 
Prof. Richeson, never tired talking about 
the peculiarities of hia now great pupil. 
He used to entertain the young people 
with descriptions of his peculiarities, es- 
pecially his marvelous modesty and great 
love for mathematics. Prof. Richeson 
pronounced him the finest mathematician 
he had ever met." 

About the only person hereabouts who 
really remembers Grant as a student at 
the Maysville Seminary iB K. M. Riclu- 
son, a brother of the late Prot. Richeson, 
now over seventy years of age and blind. 
He was in the city Saturday, and talked 
quite freely about the great warrior. He 
remembered the young man very well, 
although having never renewed the 
friendship formed so many years ago. 
He was like a great many other school- 
boys who attended high school in a 
strange city— he had been raised in a 
email country village. Grant was exceed- 
ingly modest, and not at all forward in 
any games or school exercises except in 
mathematics. He waa very strong on 
that subject and led the school. 

"The most notable fact in connection 
with the General," said he, "was that he 
and I were always opposed to each other 
in the debates. We had a society called 
the 'Kappa Gamma Chi,' and had some 
very exciting debates among the mem- 
bers. The practice was to name a leader 
for each side, and they in turn would 
select their sides. I remember distinctly 
that Grant was always the last one on 
his side, and I held the same position on 
mine. He was not much of an orator, 
but what he did Bay was very much to 
the point. There are very few people in 
Point Pleasant or that country now who 
were associated with General Grant in 
his early days, and still the country all 
around Point Pleasant has many land- 
marks that are very intimately associated 
with the General's youth. Anybody who 
rides along the C. and O. can see some of 
these buildings from Mentor, Ky., which 
is directly opposite hia birthplace. I 
should like very well once more to visit 
the dear old spot, but the loss oi my eyi- 
sight prevents it." ^^^^

district l« now supplied with a substantial, com- 
fortable school house and the old shanties In 
which the poor teachers and scholars were 
housed ( ?) have disappeared. 

New, modern style furniture, maps, charts,

Millwood school district Is under the control of 
an excellent Road ot Trustees who have done 
their best for the school property, and have 
everything in good shape: they are: Bclden 
Bramel, Ed. Bullock and Robert Jolly. Miss 
Annie T. Hord is aud has been the teacher for 
this district for past two or three terms. This 
school Is unusually well attended because she 
makes the school attractive to the children. Her 
pupils give evidence of careful training. Her 
school is admirably managed, as she Is possessed 
of executive ability of a high order. 

HELENA SCHOOL DISTRICT. .NO. 24. 

This school is worthy of blgb commendation. 
The trustees are : Thomas Collius, John Mccarty 
and 0> H. Uarnall and they have been faithful I 
and efficient. The school house consists ot two [ 
comfortable rooms and is kept in first class con- 
dition. The principal is Mr. E. Keganstiue and 
the assistant Miss Mary Thornton. These teach- 
ers are doing excellent work and the trustees 
aud patrons are I believe thoroughly satisfied. 

I And nearly all the teachers well versed In the 
latest methods and this Is cause for thankfulness 
from all who are interested In the advancement 
of educational methods. These have Improved 
amazingly in the last quarter of a century. How 
would such teaching as was customary tn years 
passed as the following agree with the pupils ot 
the present day .' In our old arithmetic In which 
we were instructed f/Mlwwl) ws* the following: 
'• To reduce a fraction of one denomination to 
the fraction of another, but t<», nUilning Iht SSMf 
tamu" "Answer, multiply the given numer- 
ator l>y the parts of the denominators between, it 
and that denomination you would reduce the 
lractiou to, for a new numerator and place it 
over the given denominator." I pre.-ume we 
worked the sum but If we did it was certainly 
not through or by nieaus of this rule. The most 
enlightened teachers of tne present day use the 
inductive as preceding the deductive method. 
Making the rules is imtustiuii,' applying them to 
the solution of problems is deduction. Socrates 
taught by these methods 500 years before Christ 
and we can no' do hetter thuu to follow him now. 
It is not well to cast old things sslde simply be- 
cause they are old. I hope to have opportunity 
to say more upon this subject 'ere long, but 
have takej up enough of your valuable paper.

in which rests the remains of America's 
great soldier. Ulysses S. Grant. Weeka 
ago it was estimated that 1 ,0 K),000 per- 
sons would come to New York to wit- 
ness the parade and ceremonies of dedi- 
cation of the tomb and that number 
may be exceeded. 

More people will behold today's pa- 
gent than will see the queen's show in 
London next month, for the line of 
march here stretches for several miles 
and much of the ronte is alongside the 
parks aud vacant lots, npou which have 
been built great stands with cushioned 
seats, canvass roofs and restaurants, for 
the spectators are expected to occupy 
their places for several honra, from tne 
time President McKinley's carriage 
passes until the last of the 55,000 men 
goes by. 

In making up the parade the grand 
marshal, General Grenville M. Dodge, 
has excluded many civic bodies which 
asked for places and has given 
room to the regular militia of the sever- 
al states and the Grand Army and kin- 
dred organizations. The white squad- 
ron lies in the North river opposite the 
tomb, and the foreign war vessels are 
anchored below. 

The exercises of the day will be car- 
ried out precisely as arranged weeks 
ago. The president and other distin- 
guished guests will leave the Fifth Ave 
nue hotel and, escorted by a squadron 
of cavalry, proceed to the tomb, where a 
Hand in the open air has been set apart 
for them. 

The exercises at the tomb will consist 
of prayer, singing by a great choir and 
speeches. 

In the evening the president and the 
other guests of the city, including the 
officers of the warships in port, will be 
entertained at receptions. The massive 
mausoleum in Riverside Park was com 
pleted only a few days ago, and has 
been handsomely" decorated with flowers 
and bunting, 



THE NATURAL WAY 



To Care Inflammation. 

Inflammation is the sustaining ele- 
ment of the great majority of our phy- 
sical ills; allay this Inflammation, aud 
the pain ceases, the flesh, muscles and 
tendons resume their tiorm.il condition 
and the violence of the attack ia at an 
end. 

It follows, then, that the first step la 
a successful assault upon disease is to 
destroy any existing Inflammation, and 
with It the pain. TMs accomplished, 
the patient Is at ease. 

This is the natural mode of proced- 
ure, and kindly Nature has famished 
the means to that end In certain roots, 
barks and herbs, which. In their due 
proportion, are constituent parts of 
Lightning Hot Drops, the greatest pain 
panacea ever known to medical sci- 
ence. 

Freely applied to a cut, bruise, burn, 
scald, or flesh-wound of any nature. 
Lightning Hot Drops will absolutely 
kill the pain, prevent all Inflammation 
and quickly heal the lacerated flesh. As 
an instance, what is more painful or dis- 
tressing than a mashed finger, with the 
nail torn loose? In such a case, Light- 
ning Hot Drops gives complete and im- 
mediate ease from pain. It will smart 
and' burn for a few minutes when flrat 
applied to fresh cuts, sores, etc., bat a 
few applications will take all the sore- 
ness out and heal the cut or sore. The 
60c size contains 2Vi times as much as 
the 25c size. Lightning Hot Drops Is 
prepared by Herb Medicine Co., Spring- 
field, O., and no honest druggist will 
offer you anything else.
